Congress is considering a bill that would limit ICE’s authority to deputize state and local law enforcement for immigration enforcement.
Tell Congress to vote yes on this bill and end the 287(g) program once and for all.

End ICE's Dangerous 287(g) Program
ICE's 287(g) program turns local police into a weapon for ICE, meaning more racial profiling, more fear in our communities, and more people in immigrant detention. Tell Congress to end it now.
